In planning debates, culture is often treated as a fixed element, either as a quasi-economic resource (cultural capital or arts activities) or as a category of behaviour (in opposition to rationality). Yet a wealth of research and analysis is available that moves the spotlight from the question of what culture is, towards understanding what we are doing when we talk about culture. This book brings that focus to planning research, examining culture as a socio-historical concept, and introducing a line of scholarship, both established and recent, to show what 'culture' does and why. Illustrated by a wide range of case studies from planning contexts, it addresses the materialisation of abstract concepts (magic, ownership), performance and embodiment (citizenship, bodies in politics) and social categorisation (house-society, the public). In doing so, it shows how a deeper understanding of culture can offer new insights into the challenges that planners and planning theorists face. While "Planning and Culture" is aimed primarily at planning theorists, professionals and students, it has equal relevance for students of human geography or sociology and is accessible to a wider readership. In effect, it opens up the field of planning to a new realm of research, enabling readers to think beyond the bounds of what they know about planning, and to think about what they may, or may not, know about culture.
